The reality of Ozzy's marriage

Ozzy Osbourne has revealed he and wife Sharon have come very close to breaking-up in the past.

The rocker, who has three children with Sharon, says their relationship is far from perfect and they have to work hard at their marriage.

He said: "Sharon and I have come pretty close to going our separate ways on a couple of occasions, but we've managed to sort things out. "Some days everything we do p**ses each other off. It's not like we have this idyllic life."

Ozzy recently revealed that the worst moment of his life was when he tried to kill Sharon while high on drugs.

The former Black Sabbath frontman confessed how he tried to strangle his wife during a vicious argument one night, after a massive drink and drugs binge.

He woke the next morning in a police cell with no memory of what had happened.

He said: "The worst thing I did was trying to kill Sharon. I got busted for strangling her and when I woke up in the nick I didn't have a clue why I was there. When the policeman read me the charge, I freaked out."
